The Ochsentour in Oerlinghausen is an approx. 7.5 km long circular trail that leads through the Wistinhauser Senne and the pasture areas of the large-scale nature conservation project.

What are semi-wild cattle from Scotland or small ponies from England doing in the woodlands of the Wistinghauser Senne?

Who were the original inhabitants of this landscape shaped by the ice ages? And where have they gone?

On a 9 km hike through the grazing areas of the large-scale nature conservation project in the Wistinghauser Senne, you will find answers to these and other exciting questions.
